Obviously, you often will not bother to track each individual bullet, but I read the text as supporting it. Certainly a RoF 2 attack which hit exactly (thus hitting with one projectile) would still use the Hitting the Wrong Target rules for the other projectile.

However, your overall edifice of both not tracking volleys and tracking volleys at the same time doesn't make sense.

Re: Shooting a LOT of Bullets Through a LOT of Folks
Tracking each bullet will make more likely to hit other people than your intended target, see below:
Scenario 1: Enemy at 10y You aim and fire with RoF10, Rcl2, effective skill is 12. He is hit by 2 bullets Scenario 2: You aim at something behind the enemy that is 10y away. You aim and fire, your effective skill is 11, however you'll roll for each bullet. Each bullet hit's on 9 or less, he is hit by 3 to 4 bullets. If you increase RoF, it gets even worse, with RoF 100 he is hit by 5 bullets, but if you aim directly behind him, then he is hit by 37 bullets. |
